S&B 45 acp cases

[mr surveyor]

Like Fyodor mentioned, even the S&B primers seem a bit "undersized". A couple years ago in the middle of the primer crunch my local supplier had to search far and wide to stock his shelves, and S&B primers were all he could find. I ended up with a couple thousand LPP's and used them for plinking rounds. That's the only primers I've had that just do not want to sit nice in the Ram Prime ... they are so loose in the ram cup it's like they want to turn flips.

My experience with S&B stuff has not been very good.
I just stay away from anything S&B when possible but, brass is brass
& like I said, one time with a simple pocket uniformer &
your good to go. Now that I think of it a bit, that brass is the
very reason I put the primer pocket uniformer in my brass prep
routine for all brass I get, New, trade or scrounge, you only need
To do it once. But, I admit, I am one who likes brass prep????

Looks like I need to hit Midway for some Lyman stuff.

I just picked up a couple of handfuls of S&B .45acp brass. I deprime by hand with a Harvey Deprimer. Really had to squeeze hard to get the primers out.

I had some S&B cases in 243 that would not go into the Lee shell holder but did fit into another brand. I think it was RCBS but I won't bet any money on it. I seem to have wound up with several brands of shell holders, probably acquired in buying out other guys stuff.
